To be honest, this place looks like a hole in the wall, but sometimes that's where you find the best food and that sure was the case here. While being a hole, Sho'Nuff was clean, the staff was very friendly and the BBQ was on point. I got the BBQ plate and couldn't finish it. The pulled pork and baked beans were delicious. I recommend getting the hot BBQ sauce. My wife got the cajun salad and really enjoyed it. Again, it was so big she couldn't finish hers. We Highly recommend this place to satisfy your BBQ needs and wants. Author David Moon Books on Amazon and Smashwords Zomosapiens Scales of Justice Pickle's Pickle read more

The food is amazing, the customer service is extremely phenomenal--I will definitely recommend this place to my friends and family to show up here specifically to eat here whether it be call-in, dine-in, or take out. Thank you for making my 1st time here phenomenal and I love the southern hospitality of it all too. It's not too loud, perfectly balanced out and i dont have to yell like i do with other eatery places. read more

The wife and I eat here occasionally when we go to Alexander City. Good place to eat with friendly staff.

I have ordered the large bbq sandwich combo and it has been great both times! The service was great and the price is right!

Don't be fooled by the location or appearance!! This hometown locally owned BBQ spot is fantastic; an all around great experience every time I visit for lunch! I Personally love the Sho Nuff BBQ tater and a cup of Brunswick Stew! Go get you some! read more

Good mom and pop hole in the wall. Employees were as nice as they could be. Meat and three plate was good. Fried green tomatoes were very fresh. read more

Found a hair in my food. Won't be back. It is my third time to eat here, kinda underwhelming for BBQ in Alex City. Good luck to you and your colon. read more

My favorite little hole in the wall barbecue restaurant! Love the hot sauce and it's not really hot. Just has more flavor.

This used to be a really good barbecue place but has gone downhill. First off, one of the cashier's is a rude old lady. She acts like the world owes her something catching attitude for simple things like wanting a drink. The food compensated for by lots of barbecue sauce, if you get take out be prepared to warm your food up because the cheese is never melted. Overall Sho'Nuff BBQ needs a total revamp of it's food and one particular staff member. read more

This out of the say...hole in the wall...restaurant has the BEST Barbecue in the area. If you haven't tried this place you have missed a true treat. Lunch or dinner..a true delight. Do not expect fancy service, fancy tables, etc. This place is just Great Food an Lots of it. DROP BY...you willnot be sorry. read more

Same as others stated, hole in wall. Loaded potato was loaded, literally scrapped meat iff the lid. Delicious and meaty, recommend the mix of hot and mild sauce. 4 stars due to lack of brisket, turkey or sausage. Fried chicken or pulled pork only. read more

Sho'Nuff BBQ - Loaded potato - Barbeque Near Me - Alexander City, Alabama

Sho'Nuff is a great place to eat! The food is really, really good. The pork is really tasty and doesn't have any fat at all. I got the BBQ Nachos and it was great (kinda small if you eat a lot but it was plenty for me). We also got the grilled cheese, pork plate and chicken fingers and they were all very good. This place looks like a hole in a wall that you probably wouldn't stop at if you didn't know it existed. This was my first time here, and for whatever reason our food took longer than expected- probably 20 minutes. People that came in after us got their food first so we went up to see what was going on. The staff was very apologetic and genuinely felt bad that ours was taking longer (not sure what happened). The employees' concern and generosity completely made up for it though so it was all good. I would definitely eat here again!! read more

Great local BBQ - try the sho nuff tater! Sho Nuff is a great local spot that not many out of towners know about. If you are visiting the Lake Martin area, it is one of the best BBQ spots in the entire area. I like the pulled pork the best. The sauce comes on the side, mild or hot. You stand in line and then sit down and wait for the food. No alcohol. They also have outside picnic tables. Highly recommended. The Sho Nuff tater is a specialty, basically a baked potato all the trimmings, plus a salad, plus some pulled pork BBQ. It may sound gross but it's actually very good. For sides they serve chips in a bag and cokes in cans. I usually get sweet tea, a regular sandwich, inside pork, and chips. If I get a tater, I get no side. It is more than enough to fill me up. During the summer we will often get a couple of pounds of Q and take it to the lake, with a side order of hot and side order of mild sauce, it makes for great sandwiches throughout the weekend. read more

Quality food at an affordable price...relaxed atmosphere. Not just barbecue...they have so much more to choose from: vegetables, meat and three daily...overall large menu. The location is somewhat hidden in the far left pocket of the Roses shopping center...park to the left and walk past the hair salon. read more

Sho'Nuff BBQ - Pork Roast, Okra, butter beans, creamed corn, corn bread- YUMMY - Barbeque Near Me - Alexander City, Alabama

It's a small little restaurant with really good BBQ! We were visiting Martin Lake and a local told us we had to try it. The BBQ is delicious and the potato was huge with lots of pulled pork layered on top! The staff was very friendly and made us feel right at home! read more

WOW!! Excellent quality BBQ! Lots of great homecooked side dishes. Friendly & fast staff. We were impressed with this nice place. Tucked in the corner of an old shopping center, somewhat hidden, there is plenty of parking. A great choice! read more

Best Barbecue in Alex City! The SHO Nuff Barbecue baked Potato is the best of both worlds and enough for two people hands down!

Recently had the meat and three for supper and I was very surprised. The chicken breast was moist and the veggies were very tasty. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good meal at a great price. The business has been around for a long time and if you haven't been in recently I would give them a try. read more

Cute little place, friendly staff, and yummy barbecue. Both sauces are yummy too! We got the large bbq sandwich plate.

Pretty good basic BBQ. Fried okra was good too. Not top notch but you'll probably be satisfied. read more

This restaurant has a lot of different choices. I wish they had more options for barbecue but they have everything from burgers to pork sandwich to loaded french fries. All the food that we ordered was great. The barbecue stew was really good. Onion rings were fantastic and so were the bbq nachos. Sauces were really good too. Would go back if ever back in town. Owner and staff were super nice. read more

They have good grilled cheese. I am not a fan of barbecue, but I live their barbecue sauce. It is really quick and the food is fresh. The service is okay. read more

Delicious little surprise in the back of a vacant shopping center. We both had a sandwich and fries and it was really good. I saw someone else with a bbq salad and I will definitely try that next time. Everything must be good because the place filled up quickly at an early dinner time. I've been told the coconut pies are excellent. read more

My favorite BBQ place near Lake Martin. The pork is moist and the sauce hits the mark. They also serve a nice meat and three with a choice of meats. I had the fried chicken special last time with creamed corn, field peas and a roll. A very nice meal with some tea. The outside picnic tables under the roof line make for a nice place to sit because the breeze comes through this area. Sho'Nuff is located in the corner of an old strip shopping center near Roses. Its hard to find unless you know it is there; but it is well worth looking for. I use to like Cottons BBQ but it is a distant second now. It made the meal plan. read more

LORD! That's all I gotz to say. I was in Goodwater, Al., visiting my grandmother and was craving a "pulled pork" sammich (not no sandwich, but a sammich!). The pecan smoke on dat pork would make yo jump for joy with the Holy Ghost and just praise the Lord! The people at Sho'Nuff were friendly with that true "Down South" hospitality. Oh, the sweet tea was off the hook! Don't forget to save room for homemade pie! I'm just mad I'm back in Cali and can't get some of that BBq on a regular! read more

How this place has a four and a half star rating; is beyond me. Pork on sandwich was the biggest pile of mush. I literally thought I was going to puke during and after. read more

Oh My Goodness!!!!! This is all I have to say about Sho Nuff. Been here a million times and will continue to go as long as they are open for business. If you are ever in the area, this is a must stop shop. A little tricky finding it because it is in a back corner of a strip mall but when you do, you have hit gold son! The Sho Nuff Tator is my go to. It's big, juicy, filled to the brim with meat, cheese, bacon, gooeyness, awesomeness, sour cream more cheese and sauce. Walk up counter to order then find you a nice picnic table outside if its nice or table and chairs inside. No matter what do you go, they will be busy so be prepared. BBQ sandwiches are a favorite also. Many southern sides to choose from. Just don't spend to much time trying to decide at the counter, the line out the door might not like you. So if it's your 1st time, look over the menu while you wait or step aside. read more

I've been eating here since it was located in a little trailer on Hwy. 22 years ago! Th this is by far the best anywhere! Beats all the well known regional chains by a mile. Try the hot barbecue! It vegt very good! read more

I'm an Eastern NC BBQ guy, but this place is pretty dang good. Tried the BBQ plate with fried okra and potato salad. Asked for mixed sauce (mild and hot). Huge portions and the meat is superbly cooked. Get the sauce on the side donut doesn't overwhelm the great BBQ. read more

You can never go wrong with a Sho'Nuff Potato!! Every one is always friendly. I definitely recommend eating here!

Best BBQ in town!! Huge portions just wish the used more sauce on everything. Love the BBQ potatoe

Outstanding! Best BBQ in Alexander City! It came HIGHLY recommended by the locals so I decided to try it out- Simply some of the best BBQ I've had ANYWHERE. Sauce is tasty & not overpowering. I had their 'hot' and expected a little fire, and was a little disappointed at first because it wasn't really spicy. But it honestly had just the right amount of heat for the flavor. French fries were FANTASTIC! Blackberry cobbler was very good, but would have been better with a scoop of ice cream. Not sure if they offer that or not. Overall, a great local BBQ joint! I will DEFINITELY be coming back for more! read more

By far my favorite BBQ! Awesome food with a great atmosphere and service. Not your fly by night BBQ place either. This man has been perfecting his art for decades! Try everything! read more

Best BBQ in Alabama! The pork almost melts in your mouth, The BBQ sauce complemented the meat. I had the string beans they were cooked like mom did, I also had the potato salad creamy yet firm, just down home good! Good service, and priced right. read more

The food is great and I have been here many times. The only problem I have had here is the service. I have never seen so many rude people working in one place. I really love eating here so I overlook the rudeness. If they would work on that , this would be the best restaurant in town. Always busy so I doubt the owner cares that the employee are rude with no personality. read more
